Chapter 693 - 732: Turning into an Idiot
Li Yifei had already stood up by this time, the ropes that had bound him scattered at his feet, as he coldly watched Sunx Dongran.
Suddenly, Sunx Dongran became acutely aware of the danger, reacting as fast as a startled rabbit. He turned and dashed toward the main door, shouting loudly as he ran, "Brother Hu, Brother Huke, that guy has broken free!"
Li Yifei paid no attention to Sunx Dongran and instead pulled Xu Shanshan to her feet. With a flick of her arm, the ropes on her body also fell away. It was just a show, for how could she truly suffer the indignity of being tied up?
"Brother-in-law, that scum is just too awful. You can’t let him off," Xu Shanshan huffed, flicking her arm. Her life had always been joyful, and even when she had made some questionable friends in the past, among them were several who pursued her, but none had ever resorted to despicable means. In her mind, even if there were bad people, it was still a society of laws now, and those who recklessly disregarded other’s lives were desperados. Little did she expect that someone as wealthy as Sunx Dongran could be like this.
Li Yifei watched Sunx Dongran, who was banging on the door, and said, "Shanshan, there are many more bad people in this society than you can imagine. You must be even more cautious when you go out."
This outing with Xu Shanshan carried a warning from Li Yifei; despite the young lady’s many schemes, she was quite naive at heart and utterly unaware of the complex and murky aspects of society.
"Brother-in-law, I understand," Xu Shanshan nodded. If it weren’t for Li Yifei having Brother Hu defect ahead of time, she could have easily fallen into Sunx Dongran’s hands. If Li Yifei had been too late, she shuddered to think what might have happened.
Intending to open the door and flee, Sunx Dongran found to his dismay that it was locked from the outside. After exerting considerable effort without success, his shouts for Brother Hu went unanswered, driving him to the brink of madness. Yet even then, it didn’t cross his mind that Brother Hu might have deliberately set him up; he simply assumed Brother Hu had stepped away and would return shortly. Turning back, he addressed Li Yifei with a mixture of bluster and underlying fear, "Li Yifei, don’t get cocky. I’m telling you, Brother Hu is outside, and he will come in and deal with you soon enough."
Li Yifei sauntered over to Sunx Dongran and said, "Do you think Brother Hu can do anything to me?"
"You... you... Brother Hu is a renowned boss in Mile City’s underworld; if you dare touch me, he will surely kill your whole family."
